GUEST,What was ommited from the above "Facts" BS: Bush won't to sign UN Plan (18) RE: BS: Bush refuses to sign UN Plan 17 Oct 04


What was ommited from the above "Facts":

"The United States told the UN General Assembly it strongly supports a UN plan adopted 10 years ago to promote every woman's right to education, health care, and to make choices about childbearing, on the understanding that it doesn't promote abortion...

Sichan Siv, the US ambassador to the UN Economic and Social Council... told the General Assembly the United States is firmly committed "to advancing the well-being of women and their families."

With the understanding that countries should not use the Cairo agenda to support abortion, "we are pleased to continue to offer our strong support for ICPD and its program of action," he said. Abortion was an issue at the 1994 Cairo conference, but the platform states that abortion should not be used as a method of family planning. It also states that unsafe abortion should be treated as a public health issue, and that women who have abortions should not be treated as criminals."
